Class 116 DMU at Coalville

1st September 1985

A pair of WMPTE class 116 dmus (TS624 and presumably 51130 closest with 59615 + 51143) forming one of the Coalville Open day shuttles, having traveled on this along the freight only line from Leicester to Coalville, the train is now loading up again before continuing to Burton-on-Trent. 1st September 1985. Andrew J Crowther.

Class 116 DMU at Buxton

13th October 1985

51130 / TS624 (presumably with 59615 + 51143) at Buxton on the 13th October 1985. This was a BR organised day excursion from Derby, formed of a Class 116 and Class 120. Chris Lings.

Class 116 DMU at Small Heath

22nd March 1986

Newly painted class 116 set TS624 (presumably 51143 + 59615 + 51130) approaching Small Heath with a Birmingham Moor Street to Stratford-upon-Avon train on 22 March 1986. I never felt entirely comfortable in this location if no other photographers were present as there was a bit of a dodgy pub immediately to the left of the road bridge but on this occasion there wasn't an issue because 2 steam-hauled workings were working away from Birmingham... Peter Tandy.

Class 116 DMU at Stratford-upon-Avon

24th June 1986

Class 116 set TS624 (51143 + 59615 + 51130) was pictured leaving Stratford-upon-Avon for Birmingham Moor Street on the evening of 24 June 1986. The shot was from the window of Stratford-upon-Avon East signalbox, somewhere I visited most weeks once the weekly Special Traffic Notice had been delivered to have a check through in case anything decent was around the following week. There was something most weeks unlike in 2026! Peter Tandy.

Class 116 DMU at Presstatyn

2nd September 1986

Summer Saturdays on the North Wales Coast route obviously brought many additional services to the area, but on weekdays, as well, there were a few unusual workings to be found during the summer months. Here a West Midlands PTE 6-car DMU formation working the 0941 Birmingham New St - Llandudno service brakes for the station stop at Prestatyn made up of Tyseley depot sets TS 624 + TS 614 formed of M51130 + M59615 + M51143 and M53895 + M59609 + M53842 (Class 116 driving vehicles with Class 127 trailers displaced from the BedPan electrification scheme). Nigel Mack.

Class 116 DMU at Hereford

April 1987

Tyseley set T624, 51130 closest presumably with 59615 + 51143, arrives at Hereford with a service from Birmingham in April 1987. Paul James.
